All my male birds have got their ring when they are moulting in Dec/Jan. They have ranged in age from 1 year old to 3 years old when this has happened. If you wanted to be sure you could get it dna sexed which would cost about $17. I have breed with male birds that didnt have a ring yet but I knew the sex because of dna sexing.

Looks like an olive.
It also looks male to me going not only by the ring forming but by the forehead shape.
This is my olive hen. As you can see there is no sign of a ring at all. She is 5 years old so fully mature.
